While pregnancy and childbirth is a beautiful journey in a woman’s life, it can leave behind a not-so-beautiful body. Women experience stretch marks from carrying their child, excess skin on the abdomen due to drastic weight changes, and deflated breasts after breastfeeding. This can make many mothers feel self-conscious about the appearance of their body and consider aesthetic surgery options that can improve the body contours. A combination of procedures performed for women to address these changes is typically referred to as a “mommy makeover.”
What is a mommy makeover?
A mommy makeover is a mix of treatments that can improve the overall body contours and restore self-confidence for women who have experienced changes to their bodies after pregnancy and childbirth. The mommy makeover typically includes:
- Breast augmentation
- Breast lift
- Liposuction
- Tummy tuck
Women may opt to include other procedures at the same time, such as thigh lift, upper arm lift, a Brazilian butt lift, or even labiaplasty. To determine the best surgeries for your mommy makeover, Dr. Jennifer Emmett encourages women to request a consultation visit and initial examination with her team at her practice, Emmett Plastic Surgery.
